Abstract: In his reappropriation of the Stoic theory of incorporeals, Jean-Paul Sartre finds the means of thinking the original nihilation. Since freedom is the human being’s secretion of “a nothingness which isolates it”, the critique of the Stoic ontology of bodies and incorporeals appears as a theoretical tool which is subtly indispensable to the developments of the fourth part of L’Être et le Néant and of Cahiers pour une morale.
